Comparing Objects

When using the comparison operator (==), object variables are compared in a simple manner, namely: Two object instances are equal if they have the same attributes and values (values are compared with ==), and are instances of the same class.

When using the identity operator (===), object variables are identical if and only if they refer to the same instance of the same class.

An example will clarify these rules.

Example #1 Example of object comparison in PHP 5

<?php
function bool2str($bool)
{
    if (
$bool === false) {
        return 
'FALSE';
    } else {
        return 
'TRUE';
    }
}

function 
compareObjects(&$o1, &$o2)
{
    echo 
'o1 == o2 : ' bool2str($o1 == $o2) . "\n";
    echo 
'o1 != o2 : ' bool2str($o1 != $o2) . "\n";
    echo 
'o1 === o2 : ' bool2str($o1 === $o2) . "\n";
    echo 
'o1 !== o2 : ' bool2str($o1 !== $o2) . "\n";
}

class 
Flag
{
    public 
$flag;

    function 
__construct($flag true) {
        
$this->flag $flag;
    }
}

class 
OtherFlag
{
    public 
$flag;

    function 
__construct($flag true) {
        
$this->flag $flag;
    }
}

$o = new Flag();
$p = new Flag();
$q $o;
$r = new OtherFlag();

echo 
"Two instances of the same class\n";
compareObjects($o$p);

echo 
"\nTwo references to the same instance\n";
compareObjects($o$q);

echo 
"\nInstances of two different classes\n";
compareObjects($o$r);
?>

The above example will output:

Two instances of the same class
o1 == o2 : TRUE
o1 != o2 : FALSE
o1 === o2 : FALSE
o1 !== o2 : TRUE

Two references to the same instance
o1 == o2 : TRUE
o1 != o2 : FALSE
o1 === o2 : TRUE
o1 !== o2 : FALSE

Instances of two different classes
o1 == o2 : FALSE
o1 != o2 : TRUE
o1 === o2 : FALSE
o1 !== o2 : TRUE

Note:

Extensions can define own rules for their objects comparison (==).
